For centuries Poland had been a meeting place for different cultures and religions. Their peaceful coexistence gave birth to the unique, multicultural heritage of this country. Jews constituted an important part of Poland’s multiethnic society. Their valuable input to the development of Polish art and culture, numerous architectural landmarks and hundreds of cemeteries still remind us about their presence.
Our aim is to encourage students to discover Poland’s multicultural heritage and to bring its memory back to the public. We believe that this is an important step towards a better understanding of other peoples and the world around us. More about the project >>
